High Speed Quad-Channel Digital Isolator
NCID9401, NCID9411, NCID9400, NCID9410
Description
The NCID9401, NCID9411, NCID9400 and NCID9410 are galvanically isolated high−speed quad−channel digital isolator with output enable. This device supports isolated communications thereby allowing digital signals to communicate between systems without conducting ground loops or hazardous voltages.
It utilizes onsemi’s patented galvanic off−chip capacitor isolation technology and optimized IC design to achieve high insulation and high noise immunity, characterized by high common mode rejection and power supply rejection specifications. The thick ceramic substrate yields capacitors with ~25 times the thickness of thin film on−chip capacitors and coreless transformers. The result is a combination of the electrical performance benefits that digital isolators offer with the safety reliability of a >0.5 mm insulator barrier similar to what has historically been offered by optocouplers.
The device is housed in a 16−pin wide body small outline package.

Functional operation above the stresses listed in the Recommended Operating Ranges is not implied. Extended exposure to stresses beyond the Recommended Operating Ranges limits may affect device reliability.
3. During power up or down, ensure that both the input and output supply voltages reach the proper recommended operating voltages to avoid any momentary instability at the output state.
4. For reliable operation at recommended operating conditions, VDD supply pins require at least a pair of external bypass capacitors, placed within 2 mm from VDD pins 1 and 16 and GND pins 2 and 15. Recommended values are 0.1mF and 1mF.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Theory of OperationNCID9401, NCID9411, NCID9400 and NCID9410 are quad−channel digital isolators. The chip to chip galvanic isolation are provided by a pair of off−chip capacitors.
Digital circuits are used for processing signals through the 0.5 mm thick isolation barrier.
Pins are trimmed internally as input or output at IO Switch. Each direction of communication between two isolated circuits are achieved by implementing a pair of Serializer/Deserializer and Manchester Encoder/Decoder functional blocks as shown in Figure 17. The Serializer circuit converts the parallel data from the IO Switch into a serial (one bit) stream and the Manchester Encoder converts this data stream into coded data making it more robust, efficient and accurate for transmission. After encoding, all inputs signals are coded as V
IT
Xand transmitted across the isolation barrier via Transceiver.
The off−chip ceramic capacitors that serve both as the isolation barrier and as the medium of transmission for signal switching using On−Off keying (OOK) technique are illustrated in the transceiver block diagram in Figure 18
and Figure 19. At the transmitter side, the V
IT
Xinput logic state is modulated with a high frequency carrier signal. The resulting signal is amplified and transmitted to the isolation barrier. The receiver side detects the barrier signal and demodulates it using an envelope detection technique and output V
OR
X.
The output signal of the transceiver V
OR
Xwill go to the Manchester Decoder. This decoder is used along with the receiver to recover the original data from the coded form and the Deserializer converts the serial stream back to the original, parallel data and redistributed back to the corresponding output pins. Both the Serializer/Deserializer and Manchester Encoder/Decoder are functional blocks on the transmitting and receiving chips.
For devices with EN, the output enable pin EN controls the impedance of the V
OX. When EN is at LOW, output V
OXis set to high impedance state. The V
OXwill only follow the V
INXwhen EN is set to HIGH. V
OXis at default state LOW when the power supply at the transmitter side is turned off or the input V
INXis disconnected.

Layout Recommendation
Layout of the digital circuits relies on good suppression of unwanted noise and electromagnetic interference. It is recommended to use 4−layer FR4 PCB, with ground plane below the components, power plane below the ground plane, signal lines and power fill on top, and signal lines and ground fill at the bottom as shown in Figure 20. The alternating polarities of the layers creates interplane capacitances that aids the bypass capacitors required for reliable operation at digital switching rates.
In the layout with digital isolators, it is required that the isolated circuits have separate ground and power planes. The section below the device should be clear with no power, ground or signal traces. Maintain a gap equal to or greater than the specified minimum creepage clearance of the device package.
It is highly advised to connect at least a pair of low ESR supply bypass capacitors, placed within 2 mm from the
power supply pins 1 and 16 and ground pins 2 and 15 as shown in Figure 21. Recommended values are 1 mF and 0.1 mF, respectively. Place them between the V
DDpins of the device and the via to the power planes, with the higher frequency, lower value capacitor closer to the device pins.
Directly connect the device ground pins 2, 8, 9 and 15 by via to their corresponding ground planes.
Over Temperature Detection
NCID9401, NCID9411, NCID9400 and NCID9410 have
built−in Over Temperature Detection (OTD) feature that
protects the IC from thermal damage. The output pins will
automatically switch to default state when the ambient
temperature exceeds the maximum junction temperature at
threshold of approximately 160°C. The device will return to
normal operation when the temperature decreases
approximately 20 ° C below the OTD threshold.
